Please, please, please READ THE FORUM POSTS
I am reworking the entire skinhelper so keep away of the git version, stick with older version for now.
I will post here on this forum as soon as I'm ready with the refactoring
Some suggestions on you reworking process:
Add service typo to addon to manager things when kodi start or when setting time to run it...
Two new settings "run service":
1 - Kodi start.
2- At time __:__ hours.
Reading xmltv.xml file if exists to grab EPG info from that file, like pvr thumbs or icon src and logos from channels, name of program description.... (at service typo running).
New setting:
Road to xmltv file: ______ (if setting is set then on run time script send message: Please wait reading your xmltv file!!!
On Finnish script send message to user: Add xx programs to skin helper service...
By doing this all most programs can be populate with information very fast and don't need to grab information to the web... I think...
A new way how manual lockup can be:
By using setting of priority:
To movies.
To TV shows.
To National shows.
To News channels.
Let say we have a movie to scrap and on menu Movies we set this priority:
1-imdb.
2-tmdb
By doing this if movie is found on IMDB addon don't lookup on TMDB... Because user prefer that site or have a account...
I think what you are doing with script.module.skin.helper.artutils are just the begin of a great tool.
On that great tool you can add more API's form different sources like for example: National shows...
Coders can add new way of scraping from diverse sites and link it to your new way of setting thing's...
Just a idea using any video plugin from kodi repo we can see that plugins scraps information for that sites...
A example: RTP Play from Portuguese national TV. Course are others...
Please keep the fantastic work and one more time A big thank's for yours tools. They are just great.
